Sugaring

How long does sugaring last?

Results last 3–6 weeks, depending on how fast and how strongly your hair grows. Sugaring weakens hair growth, so the time between sessions also gets longer over time.

How long does hair need to be for sugaring?

Hair should be at least 4 mm long – that's at least 2 weeks after shaving. See more in our sugaring guide.

How often should you sugar?

Most people sugar every 3–6 weeks. Read more in our Sugaring School.

Is sugaring better than waxing?

Yes. Sugar wax is a 100% natural product, so it's gentler on your skin. It rinses off with water because it contains no chemicals. It doesn't stick to living skin, so there's no so-called burn effect. Sugaring also removes fine, almost invisible hair, and it doesn't break the hairs, so results last longer.

Does sugaring hurt?

With the right technique and a confident grip, it's much milder than most people fear. Read more in our Sugaring School.

Is sugaring suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes – it's suitable for sensitive skin too, including skin that may not tolerate waxing.

Can you sugar while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Yes, sugaring is generally fine during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Contraindications are broken skin, large varicose veins and medication that thins the skin – if any of these apply to you, please get in touch before sugaring.

Products

The paste got stuck to my skin – what do I do?

If the paste gets stuck or melts onto your skin, rinse it off with warm water. See also our other common mistakes and fixes.

How far does one jar go?

We can't promise an exact number of sessions, as it depends on the area: a coin-sized blob is enough for an underarm, about a golf ball's worth for lower legs. Compare sizes in our sugar wax range.

Orders & delivery

When will my order ship, and how long does delivery take?

Usually 2–4 working days within Finland and 1–2 days in the Helsinki region; 4–10 days to the rest of the EU. See our full shipping policy.

Can I return an opened product?

No. Returned cosmetics must be in their unopened, intact original packaging. You can cancel within 14 days of receiving your parcel, and the return shipping costs (including the standard €5.90 return fee) are paid by the customer. Read more in our returns and cancellation terms.

Studios

How long does a studio appointment take?

It depends on the treatment: single areas like underarms or bikini line take about 15–30 minutes, while larger combinations (e.g. an extended Brazilian including the Brazilian, belly line and inner thighs) can take 45–90 minutes in total. You'll see the exact total time in our booking system.

Where are HejBuddy's studios?

Tampere studio: Satakunnankatu 22 F, 33210 Tampere (street level, in the Finlayson area). Espoo studio: Itätuulenkuja 4, 02100 Espoo, Tapiola (deck level).

How much does sugaring cost in the studio?

Prices depend on the area – for example underarms €20, bikini line €30, Brazilian sugaring for women €55 and an extended Brazilian (Brazilian + belly line + inner thighs) €65. See exact prices for all areas and combinations in our booking system.
